Station Casinos moved closer to buying more land for a future 600-room resort and casino site at the southern edge of the valley.
Henderson City Council members on Tuesday approved a purchase and sale agreement and escrow instructions for the sale of 3.76 acres of city-owned land to Station for $1.75 million. The approval was needed “to consummate the transaction,” a city staff report indicates.
In early October, the council had accepted Station’s offer for the parcel, which is adjacent to a 45-acre spread the casino chain owns in Henderson’s Inspirada community.
Buying the plot helps Station smooth out a sawtooth-shaped portion of the casino site and enables development of an access road around the property, said Scott Kreeger, president of Station parent Red Rock Resorts.
